"They... kill them?" Cang looks absolutely horrified at Anthony's description of the faction. He hurriedly follows after the aasimar, asking more questions. "Surely not all of them! There is no trial? What if the arrest is wrongful? How do they know the executed is guilty?"

I apologize for not checking in until now; that I had applied for this game kept slipping my mind. I'm afraid that I've been very busy with the offline world lately, and it's only going to get worse from here on out--I'm not certain I should be adding another PbP to a schedule that's already...

"The planes? Ah, how to explain..." Cang pauses for a few moments to collect his thoughts, then begins, "The planes are different worlds--no, more than just worlds. They are immensely large places, infinitely large, each somehow occupying its own infinitely large space. They are manifestations...

And, about five minutes back in time, because Blind Azathoth clearly goes to sleep too early and awakens too late to put his posts where they ought to go... Cang nods at the invitation, and follows after the swifter gnome as best he can. "I would be most interested in seeing the results of your...

Cang does not notice the step backwards, and seems rather oblivious to any hesitation on the gnome's part as he attempts to explain. "Perhaps you are right. I should like to witness this sema some day... it sounds fascinating." He bobs his head at the gnome's final, questioning statement. "I am...

"Ah, my mistake," Cang says, and bows his head. "Perhaps it is only how I feel, then. I have never been very proficient at reading others. Those who raised me were not stone-hearted, but they were stone-faced." Cang listens attentively as the gnome continues, and he smiles his small smile...

It is truly amazing how much one can learn about a person or a thing or a place, yet still truly know nothing of it. This is Cang Lao's foremost thought as he wanders within Sigil's great bazaar for the fifth time in as many days. It is not the first time he has had the thought; living with...

Armor provides bonuses to both AC and DR, as per the Unearthed Arcana variant. Half of the standard AC bonus, rounded down, instead becomes DR, and the standard AC bonus minus the DR equals the new AC bonus. Studded leather, for instance, normally gives +3 to AC; in the new system, it gives DR...

Thank you, and I hope so too! I'm still a bit... what's the phrase?... whacked out of my gourd on medications, so I can't really tell how well I'm doing. All my limbs are still on, though, which I figure is a good thing. Basic character sheet, though lacking a full equipment list and...

Cang Lao Male Human Psychic Warrior 5 Alignment: Lawful Good Religion: The Path of Enlightenment Region: Shou Lung, Kara-Tur Height: 5'6" Weight: 140 lbs Hair: Black, worn in a topknot Eyes: Brown Skin: Tanned Age: 19 XP: 10,000 Str: 18 (+3) [10 points, +2 gauntlets] Dex: 13 (+1) [5 points]...

Well, fortunately, UA's character traits are available in the SRD, and the trait you were thinking of was called Quick. I apologize for not getting any more done with Cang last night, but emergency room visits wait for no man. I'll do my best to get my sheet and backstory done tonight instead.

Huzzah! I'm so glad I managed to get in... I was really looking forward to this game. I apologize for not being around to post anything recently, but a number of things got in my way--friends, school, a rather nasty illness... I've got more free time later today, though, and I'll try to have...

Arcana Unearthed's Unfettered might be what you're looking for; it gets only 4+Int skills, but it's a well-built, lightly-armored duelist sort of warrior, with bonus feats, sneak attack, a nifty parry ability, full BAB, and d8 hit dice. ...the gestalt Expert/Fighter isn't a bad idea, though...

A character idea finally occurred to me. He's a prime, though raised on one of the Outer Planes. I hope that--and his choice of class--are acceptable. His name is Cang Lao, a human from Shou Lung in Kara-Tur who was accidentally stranded in Limbo as a child, but saved by a group of githzerai...

Planescape! Huzzah! If I were the type to say "squee," I would say it right now! Planescape is, by far, my favorite D&D setting, and it has been ever since I first encountered the setting. I'd love to hear more about the premise of the game... but frankly, the simple fact that it is Planescape...
